Brest Bay in Monroe, Mi is full of these. I've heard them called silver bass and/or white bass. Belleville Lake, MI is also being overrun. I've heard the Detroit River runs these that really get large but not many want to eat them. MI DNR rules used to say they had a limit of 25. They travel in schools. In Brest bay we find some structure in 18 FOW drop anchor and wait for the schools to come through. 10 - 12 inchers will make a decent fillet. I skin them out. Sometimes they are oily if that happens I brine them and smoke them like jerky. Also work good for dog chews. I'm going to find out if DNR has lifted the limit.
